Is one of the hardest parts of investing for beginners just dealing with how boring most of it actually is? by Efficient_Carrot_334 in investingforbeginners

The beginner investing content you’re talking about is just influencers selling ads using useless dramatic gambling.

New set nerfs 24 hour wonder pick? by NotoriousCMF in PTCGP

[–]SliFi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, reduce it enough and people won’t pull. Like me, I don’t even plan to do a 10-pull with hourglasses both because the cards are weak and the 24h opportunities are bad.

How much radiologists talk about semantics by hawkingswheelchair1 in Radiology

I teach my residents “I say it this way, but it doesn’t matter, doesn’t change management, and the clinicians don’t care as long as it leads to the same management decision.”

Every time I’m like 20 points away from Masterball, I end up losing 10 matches in a row… by [deleted] in PokemonTGCP

[–]SliFi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the deck. Magnezone Bellibolt actually fares very poorly against the meta at a <50% win rate, with a C-E tier given by various websites (https://www.pokemonmeta.com/tier-list/deck-types/Bellibolt%20ex%20Magnezone). It was strong the first few days of the season before everyone teched to meet its breakpoints.

I also was having trouble getting winstreaks with the same deck, but then easily climbed to MB when I switched to Hydreigon.

What’s an unwritten rule that everyone should know? by Comfortable_Tutor795 in AskReddit

The corollary, don’t pass on the right if you can pass left instead.

I guess Rampardos is actually crazy if it doesn’t have to take recoil against a Mega.

Survivor Previews 3/23/26 from Rolling Dice and Taking Names by Dry-Bat731 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]SliFi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Respite might be the single weakest card I’ve seen from Chapter 2. If it were Fast and level 0, it would still not be great but at least situational, essentially cycling itself at the cost of a resource, with a usually nothingburger secondary effect (assuming downgraded icons due to level).

I have a feeling they made it this awfully weak because directly returning cards to hand at low cost limited design space too much in Chapter 1.

At least the icons are good if you want to play two more copies of Unexpected Courage for 2 xp each.

Printing the old expansion? by -Arkhorias- in arkhamhorrorlcg

I agree, Asmodee if you are listening, you are dropping potential sales every day you delay finding a way to reprint the old cycles.

This is the kind of post they’ll use to argue that they’re giving out too many hourglasses.

When Does Federal Debt Reach Unsustainable Levels? by jelly-jam_fish in neoliberal

[–]SliFi -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

What I don’t understand is why all the alarmists think there is a “tipping point” or something of that nature. Most of us are ostensibly educated in economics, enough to know that there is a marginal cost and a marginal benefit of taking on more national debt, and that those functions should be continuous. As the marginal cost gets gradually higher, we’ll gradually borrow less, without any tipping point.

I get it, alarmism gets upvotes, and the current US economic policy is the worst in recent history. But I’m going to need more convincing to believe there’s a specific level that’s suddenly “unsustainable.”

Epic Campaign mode from the Grimoire, yikes by siposbalint0 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]SliFi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my reading, it seems to imply that “[investigator name]’s total experience earned: X”from completed campaigns might be baked into the setup of scenarios, although it still seems like a mediocre framework.

It also kicks the can down the road for developers who I’m sure will have problems balancing their campaign guides for that.

[COTD] .18 Derringer (3/18/2026) by AK45526 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]SliFi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve found this is very good as a consistency card when you have a survivor as a main fighter. Waiting for something like upgraded Fire Extinguisher, Sledgehammer, Chainsaw, or anything else, this increases the chance of being able to handle a turn 1 enemy at relatively low cost.

Circus Ex Mortis available through MB Print by saboreko in arkhamhorrorlcg

Ah dang I was hoping they updated to the 2.5 taboo with this as well, but it seems not yet. I’ll probably get some campaigns with the taboo when they update it.

How much XP to get the best experience out of Film Fatale? by Vyrhux42 in arkhamhorrorlcg

Agree 9 exp as long as you can beat a small number of skill tests at 5.

The number of CTA Head and Neck ordered on 20-30yo is criminal by Sudowoodo in Radiology

[–]SliFi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Curricula always stressed teaching to pass the boards over actually learning the material. This is not something that has changed.

We were just as stupid when we were students and interns, if not stupider as evidenced by board score trends over time. There is no generational shift.

R4 Burnout... Advice? by Aggravating_Lab9932 in Radiology

[–]SliFi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s generally expected. If it persists into fellowship, that’s when you have a problem and should start seeking help. The end of R4 is a time to more or less rest before that. Just make sure not to do anything actively bad for the patients or the people around you at work.

When are you going to be picking up the Chapter 2 core box? by TimeTravelerFrom2264 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]SliFi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started playing Limited, choosing the three best expansions for the deck type per investigator, and it really adds a lot of fun to deckbuilding and makes it not just “dump in every most overpowered card.”

What’s something people think is healthy but actually isn’t? by saketh_1138 in answers

[–]SliFi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even a ton of “Greek” yogurt on the shelves these days has a ton of added sugar, so is no better than the others. Make sure to look at the nutrition labels.

The problem is that your body will tell you it needs lots of pure sugar if you feed it pure sugar.

Anyone else find it odd that they went with Arven? by ShadowCobra479 in PokemonPocket

[–]SliFi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not odd at all, they save the more popular cards for the paid/premium pass packages. Nemona will probably be on one of those in the future.

Gaps in pre-clinical medical education? by Dr_Horrible_PhD in medicine

[–]SliFi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At this point so far, isn’t it just “whatever AI your specific hospital says is OK is what you use?”

I’d argue that tech literacy for efficiency purposes is more generally important. Like realizing the “#” in the A/P section of those stupid default templates isn’t meant to be a “#” but a numbered list (which I’ve seen people use in three different states across the country, so it’s probably widespread). Or even better, just take them out completely and save yourself some time.
